Party Launch!
Party Launch Replay
An hour feel-good, mood boost kicking us off!
I led a virtual party and e-social with a funny and wholesome meme slideshow, a caption contest, a background contest, Merriment Missions, dancing in a panda mask, and group coaching.
There's props like bubbles, slinkies, giant sunglasses, lollipops, noise blowers, balloon dogs, knex balls, and sparklers!
This isn't a lesson. There's no homework besides whatever color card you draw from the Merriment Missions deck to go have a fun time this weekend!
Start your first lesson below!

Bonus - EFT/Tapping: Call In More Fun
What is tapping?
If you've never tapped before, this is a "shadow work" technique we use in the Merriment Makers Membership, which is basically just talking while tapping on parts of your body.
The parts of your body are "meridian points" which correlate to major organs and energy centers and the tapping mimics acupuncture/acupressure.
The talking is a combination of identifying what your problem/fear/challenge is and then shifting focus to what you want to call in. Essentially positive affirmations.
Why does it work?
The combination of acknowledging the issue, positive affirmations, acupressure, meridian energy points, and combination of cerebral and somatic work at once is a highly effective tool for creating change on a "limiting belief".
It was first developed as a tool for Veterans suffering from PTSD and continues to be extremely effective today.
If you want science to back it up, check out the research section of this Medical News article.
If you're skeptical, give it a try. You've only wasted a few minutes.
What do you do?
All you have to do is tap on your body where I tap and repeat after me.
If you can't reach a point or miss something, it's okay. It still works.
You can do this as often as you'd like.
